Check the family record before applying
An FRC reflects the family composition already recorded by NADRA. A missing or incorrectly linked family member may require a separate record update before the certificate shows the expected information.
Prepare likely evidence
Collect identity, passport, family and change records relevant to your case.
Review for consistency
Check names, dates, relationships and contact details before submission.
Use the official channel
Complete the official application and retain the tracking reference.
Useful information to collect
- Identity numbers for the relevant family members
- Birth, marriage, adoption or death evidence where applicable
- The reason the certificate is required
- Any existing FRC or family-tree information
The organisation receiving the FRC decides whether it meets its requirements.
